Ex Paraguayan VP feared kidnapped
There’s a growing concern in Paraguay that former vice-president Oscar Amancio Denis has been kidnapped by a guerrilla group.
Current president Mario Abdo Benitez visited the family of Denis on Friday (September 11), after reports he’d gone missing from a ranch in the north of the country two days earlier.
Local authorities report he may have been kidnapped by members of the Paraguayan People's Army guerrilla group.
Denis was vice-president in Paraguay from 2012 to 2013 and his family has urged his abductors to release him because of fears for the 74-year-old's fragile health.
